In less than two weeks time a brand new online poker tournament festival will kick off, a festival that will see 88 tournaments played in a single week that have combined guaranteed prize pools of $2,000,000! Interested? Keep on reading to find out more.

The 888poker $2,000,000 SUPER XL Series gets underway on Nov. 17 and will run through until Nov. 25. During that period there will be a total of 88 tournaments taking place and $2,000,000 worth of guaranteed prize pools will be up for grabs!

The SUPER XL Series opens at 19:35 GMT on Nov. 17 with the $100,000 SUPER XL opening event. This $109 buy-in tournament boasts a $100,000 prize pool and is the perfect way to get the new festival off the mark. Two other events will also take place on Nov. 17, a $50+$50+$50+$9 Knockout event (20:00 GMT) that carries with it a $5,000 guarantee and a $109 buy-in Hurricane (20:45 GMT) that will see at least $15,000 be paid out to those making it into the money places.

Every day sees hundreds of thousands of dollars up for grabs, but it is Nov. 25 that features the largest guarantees. On that particular day there will be 12 SUPER XL events taking place that have combined guaranteed prize pools of $945,000! There are two $150,000 guaranteed tournaments scheduled, plus what is being billed as “the tourney to end all tournies,” the $525 buy-in SUPER XL Main Event and its $500,000 guaranteed prize pool!

The SUPER XL Main Event will see each player start with a generous starting stack containing 10,000 chips, giving plenty of room for the cream to rise to the top. The blinds start at just 25/50 and increase every 25-minutes, making for a superb structure.

As you would expect there are a plethora of satellite tournaments into each of the SUPER XL events, with buy-ins starting from just $0.08, so there is no excuse for not trying to win your way into some of these amazing events.

In addition, new players who download 888poker through PokerNews can help themselves to a huge 100% match up to $888 first deposit bonus and will be eligible to participate in all future promotions 888poker and PokerNews hold together.
